"Loud Noises" - Anchorman

Rah-rah-ah-ah-ah
Roma, Roma-ma
Gaga, ooh, la la

Ok, so we are definitely not going to use today’s segment to write about the illustrious Lady Gaga. But lets discuss someone in the music industry who’s quickly becoming bigger than Ms. Gaga’s male genitalia: Drake.

Mr. Drizzy Drake is known for his witty one-liners, a la Lil Wayne, and smooth vocals. His rise in the industry is remarkable, considering he has yet to release an album. The hits keep coming, and Drake has done little to disappoint. Unfortunately, we are all chugging his Sprite so quick that we have failed to see the kid with the real 7up in the game. Allow me to introduce J.Cole.

J. Cole was the first artist signed to Jay-Z’s new label, Roc Nation. His introduction to the mainstream was in Jay-Z’s The Blue Print III, on the track “A Star is Born.” The North Carolina bred lyricist delivers quite a punch on the track. J. Cole strikes a similar resemblance to Lupe. His music is real and his flow is so sharp it leaves an emo kid's wrists hurting. While Drake has “money to blow,” Mr. Jermaine Cole is running on a “dollar and a dream.” Please check out his latest mixtape, “The Warmup.” If your schedule doesn't allow you to devote forty minutes to the whole CD, do yourselves a favor and listen to "Can I Live" and "Grown Simba." We will be having an exam on this, so please, no shortcuts.
